English lyrics[edit]
Wind goes passing by through the sunset sky
This wind will carry lots of memories
When you’ll look around you won’t see me anywhere
But you will feel in the air that I am there
For a time, I will be away
With the wind gusting along
I’ll just say it won’t be too long
Soon enough we will meet one day
Sentimentally, the time will pass us by
And all we shared was a moment, I know
But that moment will shine us through to the sky
So don’t look back, let the moment be forever
Speed of time was different for us
Not to say that was all bad
Nonetheless those moments we’ve treasured
Will be carved into stone eternally
So please never forget
All the precious time we shared
The warmth of your hands
Don’t forget, don’t look back, I’ll be there
Promise me that you’ll walk again
Won’t you show me that smile?
And I know, you will find that someone
Who will help you move on
Since that day you came and took my hand
Our story began
So don’t be scared to reach out for someone
I know you will be fine, just go on
Original lyrics[edit]
空を風が 駆け抜けていく
沢山の 思い出を載せて
風と共に 私は消えるけれど
それはほんの 少しの間だけ
手を取った あの日から
二人の時間が 始まった
だから 悲しまないで
その手は 誰かのためにーー
たとえ刹那であっても
私には 永遠だったよ
流れる時間は違ったけれど
あなたは大切にしてくれたね
あの日のこと 私は忘れない
その手の 温かさをーー
だから 振り返らないで
いつでも傍に いるからーー
どうか 立ち止まらないで
笑顔を もう一度
きっと どこかにいるよ
その思いを 継いでくれる人がーー
手を取った あの日から
二人の時間が 始まった
だから 悲しまないで
その手を 誰かにーー
あの日のこと 私は忘れない
その手の 温かさをーー
だから 振り返らないで
ここで 待っているからーー

Album notes[edit]
- Album notes written by Yasunori Mitsuda.
Just as in Xenoblade Chronicles 2, I asked Jen Bird to sing this song. When Executive Director Takahashi sent me the lyrics, I realized it was written from Lora's point of view when she appeared in front of Jin. More than sadness, I put a sentimental and hopeful feeling into the song. The combination of a major and a minor key expresses Lora’s complicated feelings. Wouldn't it be great if Jin and Lora's efforts could be rewarded?
